Thank You Again
A good write is but a story told so well.
From the heart my poems develop and swell.
Try to as I might, to deny it is a fools errand.
And in the end it is so hard to deliver that message.
For I'm only here to make passage.
It is of the time and mind in which we must listen closely.
For images appear so ghostly.
Vivid is that right in front of you and you don't even know it.
Descriptions full of entrails.
Your talent befalls a calling.
Appealing it may not seem, but your only one who can redeem.
You say it is I, I say it is you.
If we do as we always do, will we get through?
This life is but a roller coaster ride.
It has ups and downs.
But in the end this has been my turn around.
I hope, wish, and pray, for forgiveness everyday.
I'm not sure I could explain it any other way.
And this my fan and friend is where it ends.
Thank you again.

Like an adventure
as we grow
life takes us to the battle field
where we have to fight in order to survive
life is all about war
dealing with heart break
with sorrow and pain
as we goes through life '
the harder it will get
when i open my eyes
is when i begin to see
how hard it is to get what we wanted
life never goes our way
that's the sadden of me
life is like a roller coaster
let; s enjoy the ride
life is like an adventure
that will; never come to an end
you die it goes along without you
you alive it goes with you
i life there's no option
you bleed to carry on
again
life is like a roller coaster
let's enjoy the ride
life is like a journey
everyday we learn a new story
everyday we face a new challenge
life is like a adventure
it takes us anywhere
it blows us anywhere and whenever
sometimes life burn us
where we have to turn to ashes
let's all accept it and enjoyed the journey

Iceberg
Life is a roller coaster that we all ride
Life is a roller coaster that we all ride
Life is a roller coaster that we all ride
Iceberg-Ive fallen in love with an
Iceberg-its only the tip of the
Iceberg-Ive heard that its cool
I got class, I got style
But once in a while out on the town
I must go
Youd better wash out your zone
Watch out you stone bone headed woman
Watch out you bone headed man
Iceberg-its freezin over second avenue
Theres not a thing that you can
Iceberg-its comin over second avenue
Youd better believe theres nothin
You can do about it
I was an orphan and I couldnt help it
Ive been in and out of trouble
Ever since they left me in a basket
On the freeway
Its me thats been doggin your shadow
Its me thats been a shadowin your dog
You got me hung up lock and stock and barrel
Ill always be behind you in the fog
So you better not annoy me
Or Ill do somethin that I might regret
Youd better not annoy me or Ill do
Somethin that you wont forget in a hurry
And I might be back for some sloppy seconds
Youve heard me heavy breathing on the telephone
My word they say that Im belongin
In a home for crazy people
But you know I dont belong there
I was an orphan and I couldnt help it
Id been in and out of trouble
Ever since they left me
In a basket on the freeway
Lie lie lie etc
Die die die etc
Hooray hooray ha ha ha
Hooray ha ha ha
Get down get down get down get down
Theres really not a lot that you can do
Lay down lay down lay down lay down
Theres really not a lot that you can do
Theres really not a lot that you can do
And I might be back for sloppy seconds
Life is a roller coaster that we all ride

You Always Need a Friend
You always need a friend
Someone to be by your side
From beginning to the end
Through the ups and downs of this roller coaster ride
You always need a friend
That is generous and caring
Who will help you fix what's ruined
And laugh at what you're wearing
You always need a friend
Who has a good sense of humor
And will put to an end
If they heard wrong of you in a rumor
You always need a friend
That you can trust with anything
Someone that you could depend
On and talk to about everything
This person should be treasured
Because they are your best friend
Their friendship doesn't have to be measured
Since they will be there until the end

My Roller Coaster Love
I have been on
The sweetest ride
Of my life
And it was fun.
I have ridden
My one
And only
Roller coaster of love.
It has its ups
It has its downs
But all in all
It's better than a clown.
I have had fun
I know this now
That this one ride
Is now my life.

Mama Dont Forget To Pray For Me
(larry shell/larry cordle)
Well hello, its good to hear your voice
I hate to call so late, but I didnt have a choice
Im calling you from dallas, headed for l.a.
I wish I had more time to talk, theres so much to say
No I aint forgot how I was raised
But Im livin way too fast
Its a roller coaster ride, up and down
My new job is going great, Im headed for the top
I should be happy but somehow Im not
Sometimes I think the devil has got me by the sleeve
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me
Tell me how is the weather?
Have you put the garden out?
Are the dogwoods bloomin out behind the house?
No Im not sick, theres nothin wrong, dont wake up dad
I just thought of you and home and got a little sad
No I aint forgot how I was raised
But Im livin way too fast
Its a roller coaster ride, up and down
My new job is going great, Im headed for the top
I should be happy but somehow Im not
Oh, sometimes I think the devil has got me by the sleeve
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me
Oh, mama dont forget to pray for me

I Can't Erase You
I can't erase you
or forget
all about you
and the time we had
you tend to pull
at my heart all day
you make me smile
and me cry too
I can't live without
ever seeing you
I need you to know
the pain I feel everyday
when I write
these poems for you
its hard for me
to even breath
when I think of you
my breath is gone
because you always manage
to take my breath away
you're smart and funny
loving and kind
you make my day
sine brighter than stars
you're in my dreams
you make them good
you meals me smile
even when I want to cry
it always hurts
when I must go
when I turn
you're still on my mind
when a friend says
that they saw you
I always turn away
so they don't see me blush
you're the one thing
that I just can't
turn from and
say no too
if I've said it once
I've said it much more
I'm glad you're in my life
I'm glad that we're friends
as much as I wish otherwise
friends is good too
but I'll always hurt inside
if only you knew
but sometimes
knowing isn't the best
I wish I had
known it before
my heart is racing
and screaming for you
it only wants to know
that you feel the same
but now i see
that waiting for you
is like waiting for rain
in the middle of a drought.

Our Shelter Is The Purpose Of Our Creation
IT is the intention to gain
that makes one creative,
and so when the gain is taken
one sulks back to his
stagnant self,
the intention to be happy
is one thing too,
as though the purpose of having this life is simply
happiness,
that when one is sad, life becomes
meaningless
a slave of feeling, a roller coaster of emotion
one is a rider,
when the ride is over, what then is next?
the roller coaster stops
one gets out from his seat and bind
you take a walk, remembering the highs and lows
and this soon shall stop
there is no roller coaster in the house where we live
will there be no excitement anymore
when we feel nothing
shall life and dreams cease too?
we are not our creators
we are created for a purpose
and this we must discover
and there we shall take shelter.

My Inspiration
vs.1 You've been helping me get through life,
This roller coaster full of ups and downs.
I'm so glad that you're by my side,
When those tough times come around.
I don't know what I'd do without you here,
Well, it just wouldn't feel right.
'Cause you always wipe away my tears,
That's why I'm singin' tonight.
(chorus)
Oh, you're my inspiration,
You're what keeps me goin' strong.
You're my motivation,
And you have been all along.
You always tell me it'll be okay,
Even when things go wrong.
That's why I think it's safe to say
You inspire me.
vs.2 You make me happy when I'm full of sadness,
And you put a smile on my face.
You always try and make me laugh,
I'm so glad you're here today.
(chorus)
(instrumental)
vs.3 And when it's time for you to go,
Yeah, I know it will be hard.
But I just want you to know
You'll always be in my heart.
(chorus) x 3
Yeah, you're my inspiration.
You inspire me.
No matter what,
You always will be my inspiration.
Whoooaahh...
Do, do, do, do, do, yeah :)

Poetic Friend
I just met a friend on line who
complimented my poems of verse and rhyme.
He saw something in it which I can’t describe.
As if we had became one of a kind.
It was as if I had become the poetry
Instead of it coming out of me.
My poems and I became as one
As the sky with the sun.
This is a feeling which I find hard to
Put into words, like a voice which
Had never been heard,
Like the final door that has to be opened
And you have the key, that will set your
Mind and heart free.
Is there really a point in life
Where we become what we write?
Have I really gotten to such a threshold
Or is it that I’m getting old?
I guess I’m getting old!
For this is the story that I’ve been told.
Ha-ha got to love it!

Life……
Always give more to life, never count the gifts we gave..
Do keep a count of sweet memories, cause they are all we save..
Never ask too much from life, never be too keen to take..
Read the book called 'Life', learn from the mistakes we make..
We tend to curse our life, when life brings us pain..
Do ever we bless our life, when life brings peace and sain..
Big joys don't matter to us, small problems hurt too much..
We count the knock out punches, we forget the gentler touch..
Life is always a wish, we pray for better then best..
We seek self satisfaction, we end up neglecting the rest..
Life is a roller coaster ride, full of twist and turn..
each ride should bring more smiles, each turn should have more fun..
Life is fighting a war, some battles are won while others are lost..
Loosing may cause some pain, but winning comes at a greater cost..
Life is an individual sport, it depends on how we play..
Winning and loosing should not matter, take new challenges everyday..
Life is a sweet smile, life is a salty tear..
Life is the heart of courage, life is our darkest fear..
Life seeks for true love, Life needs our trust..
Everything for life is an option, for us all that is must..
Life is a tower of cards, you need to build it slow..
Life can fall apart to pieces, with a gentle blow..
Life is a silent river, lay in its flow and let it drift..
Respect life, if you respect god for life is his greatest gift..
Don't count moments in life, Cherish the life each moment brings to you..
Life can mold in different shapes, it depends on what we do..
Time is the greatest healer, if this is really true..
Keep good faith in life, and life will have faith in you..

Final Moments
Lately i have lost myself
my talent to me begins
to make no sense
my body mind and soul
is lost among the rumble
my eyes begin to water
my heart gets heavy as
am only one amongst
millions i can not be helped
as my time is up
so fast so short
so much left unsaid
but yet no ones there to hear
so i continue on my own
as i wipe my last tear
i have gotten back up
on countless occasions
but none can match
these recent days
i swear its been a roller coaster
ride with a down fall to the end
so goodbye to all my friends

Anywhere But Here
When I'm in a crowd
Or on an island by myself
Silent or too loud
Wishing I was somewhere else
And I can't believe
You hit me fast and hard
When you turn to me and say
Never change the way you are
Trying to catch your eye
Things will never look the same
Now I can't deny
You're the moth and I'm the flame
There I go again
I should walk before I run
How can I explain
I can't stop what you've begun
[CHORUS:]
I'm falling through the door
Flying 'cross the floor
When you look at me suddenly it's clear
You're burning up my dreams
Crazy as it seems
I don't wanna be anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
What goes on inside
Is a mystery no doubt
A roller coaster ride
I may never work it out
Here's the brand new me
Skates around and floats on air
I'm a sight to see
Rainbow colors in my hair
You have set me free
The one who gets me there
[CHORUS]
Here is the place where
My head is spinning
Time is beginning
To race away
You come to throw me
Knock me off my feet
You give me wings to fly
The world goes crashing by again
[CHORUS 2X]

Hope & Pray
I see the headlights
Shining on the wall
It seems Ive got a visitor
Who is kind enough to call
And I hope and I pray, everyday
I hope and I pray its you.
I thought I heard some footsteps
On the floor
And tell me am I dreaming
Or is it someone at the door
cos I hope and I pray
Everyday
I hope and pray, its you
Autumn turns to winter
And winter turns to spring
I only know the passing of the days
And if you were to ask me
About the meaning of my life
It kind of lost its meaning
On the day you went away
You know that when it comes
To matters of the heart
I thought I had it covered
But its tearing me apart
And I hope and I pray
Everyday
I hope and I pray, its you.
Autumn turns to winter
And winter turns to spring
The summer sun still lingers
In my head
If it wasnt for the letters
That you wrote me from the heart
Id sometime wonder baby
If I dreamed it all instead
You see Ive got to feel your hand
Upon my face
I need to get the calling
To rejoin the human race
And I hope and I pray
Every day
I hope and I pray, its you.

The Climber -MAREA JOHNSON
i ran across a poet who has a style just like me.
her first five poems that you read
will show you what i mean.
she has a talent which will touch everyones
mind and soul.
she is the one, that in my dreams i was told.
she has a unique talent, and a flair all her own
she puts words together that will touch the coldest soul.
she will write stories that will be beyond compare
that is when- her poems she will share.
keep your eyes open and listen to what
she has to say.

For You And I
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
take a look around
We're quick to laugh when they've got troubles (ooh ooh)
and we put 'em down
We go
We're not so hot you know
It's like a roller coaster
On a downward motion
On a one way street
We can't control our feet
We're on the road to ruin
Don't know what we're doin'
She may be quiet
She may be shy
But don't you bring her down
Don't pass her by
The world of wisdom behind her eyes
Could answer everything
But you and I
We seem to wander in a daydream (ooh ooh)
We never look around
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
and we put 'em down
We go
We're not so hot you know
It's like a roller coaster
On a downward motion
On a one way street
We can't control our feet
We're on the road to ruin
Don't know what we're doin'
She's not beautiful
But don't make it plain
You underestimate
It's not a game
A heart of gold
Behind the drab
Would comfort anyone
But you and I
Should try to see it from the other side (oooh)
We'll get a shock
It could surprise you
The world is full of other people (ooh ooh)
take a look around
We set the pace while others listen (ooh ooh)
never make a sound
The rain must fall
But we can change
Our understanding
will remain
So take a moment
To wonder why
The world keeps turning
For you and I

Dark writing....
Dark shadows sneak under the door
As I keep writing these dark lyrics more
Of a nature that's not evil or unkind
Rather of disturbing thoughts in my mind.
They say for everything bad it's found
Something good it has to come around
The weather wouldn't be pleasant if wasn't for the rain
These feelings wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the pain.
I'm doing a storm in a cup of water to prepare
Meanwhile around people don't even care
I pray for my life to not end before these stanzas
But mindlessly I write and write looking for the answers.
My cold dark poems are everywhere
Floating around in the midnight air
Listen, closely you have no choice
These dark words, my deep voice.
Where the world is falling apart,
There lies a dark poem of the heart
Dark poems tell the darkest lines
They make you hear their shrieking cries.
Hold dearly onto your ravaged soul;
Don't find you've let life take its toll
Youll find my dark poems are everywhere
Read them, like them, if you dare….
I am the shadow hiding in the dark
The evil sounds that wake you in the night
I'm a shadow lurking in the dark
Because still it always feels so right
So I write my shadowy poems line by line
But I'm constantly over looked
My brain is fried down to the spine
And my broken heart is cooked
I'm left only with part of a heart
That will never again beat
I'm the one person
No one has to meet
I am a shadow lurking in the dark
Writing my poems so deep
Whispering my words so stark
Pray your soul to keep…

On Writing a Poem
I yearned to be a Poet someday;
Enthrall the literary world someway;
I knew to write a good Poem,
Was not quite easy- from my mom!
Of all the many talents I’d got;
My one thing-my Poetic thought;
From the Heavens like a thunder-squall,
Master-like, I began to enthrall.
Even my wife, she makes some fun
Of me- Poet? I like to pun,
With words; and under the Sun,
I will be great and try to stun.
The urge to be a good Poet,
Persists to goad me on and on;
So, now and then, I tried to write,
And whenev’r the lines are born!
Many a talent, I possess,
I will also become famous;
If my one Talent, I pursue,
Very soon, limelight will ensue.
Whatev’r thy aim, begin, one must;
Swim, one day, the unchartered sea;
Success will come to a brave heart;
That keeps writing with immense glee.
This stress though strange, I’ve suffer’d;
To struggle thus, undeciphered;
‘Tis a worthy cause and the fame,
Everlasting shall end the game.
Poetry, addiction to some,
Like cannabis, heroin, rum;
A Poet should best deliver,
But God is the sole Giver!
No matter all the blunders writ,
Despite critics calling unfit;
One stealthily makes progress,
In any field to bring success.
With time, the poem gets mended!
Hours of hard labor seem ended;
All is so well that ends so swell!
The Poet happily will revel.
Not all need win laurels, acclaim,
Man must his creator proclaim;
God’s love of Mankind, knows no bounds;
And haunts us tenderly, all around!

Goin faster than a roller coaster

You Are The Prayer!
pray for peace,
and then live your prayers!
pray for love,
then give your love a body.
pray for hope,
then make the changes needed
to bring hope life!
pray for forgiveness,
and then forgive!
pray for courage,
then dare to do!
pray for fullfilment,
then give everything you
cherish away!
pray for wisdom,
then listen intently!
pray for tomorrow,
then live today!
pray for truth,
then walk naked and strong!
pray for the earth,
then treat it with respect...
pray with all of your heart,
then be silent and still,
knowing, and believing,
that you are the prayer!
